  • This is a video about how I made my version of DIY Oru Kayak.
    Sorry for the bad audio quality here, this is also one of the reasons why it has taken so long to edit it. For more information you can e-mail me to eerikmee@gmail.com

    Hi Eerik, beautiful build! How has the contact cement held up over time? Any leaking/breaks/cracks?

    • @eerikmee2050
      @eerikmee2050  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks! It didn't show any delamination at the time I was using it. I didn't take it with me after my time in Thailand was up; I thought to build another one once back at home, but haven't managed so far. When the kayak is assembled, the 2 sheets are pressed together, so it should be fine in long run. And even if it starts to delaminate it will be possible to glue it together again.

      It was around 50 USD, but it was in Thailand. Everything was really for bargain price there.

      @@denisgarnier7201 I get it now. You have to decide where the bulkhead is located, and measure the distances from fold to fold. Then just decide/try an angle for the bottom and for the deck, and use these measurements for each side of the bulkhead.

    Hola, me ha encantado, has realizado un excelente trabajo.
    Me podrías facilitar los planos. Gracias.
    El pegamento utilizado es de contacto,❓ así lo supongo, al aplicar en ambos lados y realizar la unión después de unos minutos.
    Hay que dar una suave lijada antes de aplicar ❓ Gracias.
